hen's teeth

 
Yesterday's post about British jewellery designer Jo Pond reminded me of this wonderful piece (first pic) from Viv of Hen's Teeth which I have had in my bookmarks forever. I love the combination of the old tin, the found objects and the beautiful stitching.

Then today while browsing Viv's photostream on flickr I found the gorgeous heart brooch in the lower pic, a more recent piece from Viv. Love it!

incredible colour

Found here.

I would love to be able to paint our apartment building these colours! Although I am fairly sure the heritage protection laws for our building would not allow it... Will have to be content with planting some flowers out the front I think, perhaps some hollyhocks as they seem to do amazingly well here, in not so perfect conditions. Will have to get G (the gardener in the family) onto it!

I'd love to replace the plain cheap newish radiators in our apartment with ones like this. I don't know about finding one in Sweden though, let alone eighteen...
